so you say your new girlfriend’s a little too friendly you caught her telling one more lie, one too many you say she won’t love you right, she stays out so late at night lately you’ve been thinking ’bout the time

you could have been mine you could have been mine

it wasn’t very long ago you had my attention and what she did that turned your head, well, i won’t mention i won’t say i told you so but there’s one thing you should know i was seeing hearts and valentines

you could have been mine you could have been mine

that’s the chances we take with the choices we make there’s gonna be mistakes from time to time and you could have been mine

now you’ve got your bed all made so lay alone in it don’t even think about what we could’ve been for even one minute but i’d have been your juliet, i never gave you one regret but don’t you let that cross your troubled mind

when you could have been mine you could have been mine

that’s the chances we take with the choices we make there’s gonna be mistakes from time to time oh, you could have been mine
